Annals of Euphemism
From yesterday's West Coast fish-wrapper & today's East Coast cage-liner, we see that our boys & girls who've died in vain on the other side of the world (victims of, at the very least, voluntary manslaughter, at the hands of the Bush-Cheney criminal consortium) are now gloriously, poetically known as "The Fallen."
NYT today: "Six of the Fallen, in Words They Sent Home"
Yesterday's LAT: "Stories of the fallen"
"Help, I've fallen & I can't get up! Again. Ever."
Wouldn't destroying our Army & Marine Corps in a war of choice qualify as treason, or "aid & comfort to the enemy?" Aren't those impeachable offenses?

Cheney said on ABC they chose to fall. So tough shit.
Arch fiends know about these things, they're always there with the apples ready to push.
Don't forget the Navy. All the corpsmen (medics in the Army) in the Marine Corps are Navy personnel.
